General
advice for taking your photos
The following are general tips for taking photos of your car for use on
your site
Make sure the car
is as clean as you can get it.
If possible, don't
take the photo in front of houses etc. if need be, drive somewhere more
'picturesque' and take it there.
make sure there
are no obvious shadows or reflections such as lamp posts, houses or the
photographer on the car. This can ruin the desired effect.
Taking the photo
in brilliant sunshine can cause real problems with very dark shadows and
bright spots. Best conditions are a bright but overcast.
Take photos at various
angles and from different heights to give as much choice as possible.
If your photo is
to be used in a special effect where the car has to be removed from the
background, it is very difficult to remove the wheels from the background
because of shadows so it is especially important not to take this at Midday
in bright sunlight as the shadows will be especially dark underneath the
car. |
